    Colorful Crafty Cards using the Crafty Babes Collection

    May 21, 2025 / 1 Comment

    Hello! Jen Kotas here today with three cards featuring the Simple Stories Crafty Babe Collection. There are two die set plus other papers, embellishments, and stickers. I focused on the dies for these cards but I couldn’t resist using some of the other products. I picked my color palette from the papers in the collection. All of my cardstock is from the new ColorWheel Cardstock, except one from Hero Arts Premium Cardstock. Die cut the pieces from Labels and Icons Etched Dies from the following ColorWheel Cardstock Colors: Raven, Alabaster, Teal Topaz, Seaside, and Beeswax. Cut heart from Hero Arts Ultra Pink cardstock. Cut icons from Raven twice. Using the…

    For my first card, I used the stitched ornament etched dies. First, I die-cut the stitched ornament from Poppy Field cardstock.  Then, I used some gold metallic thread to stitch through the die-cut holes.  Once I finished stitching, I die-cut the detail piece for the ornament from brushed gold cardstock two times.  I glued them to the top and bottom of the ornament.

    Fun Dies and Crafty Babe Supplies Card

    May 20, 2025 / 2 Comments

    Hi there crafty friends! I’m Rebecca Keppel. Today I am sharing a step-by-step tutorial using some of the Crafty Babe dies and Simple Stories supplies to create a card. When working with papercrafting supplies, I like to choose a sentiment for my card first and build out the rest of the card around it. Here, I started by checking out the Crafty Babe Bits & Pieces cardstock die cuts and chose the “shine & sparkle” pieces. Next, I chose a piece of the 12×12 Crafty Babe patterned paper and cut it down to A2 (4.25×5.5”). I use my Color Swatch Petal Etched Dies swatch book of ColorWheel cardstock to find coordinating…

    Crafty and Happy

    May 19, 2025 / 1 Comment

    Hey Crafty Friends, it’s Amy Tsuruta and I’m thrilled to be back on the Spellbinders blog featuring the amazing Crafty Babe Collection with Simple Stories. I love the retro color palette and crafty theme. I had so much fun with these happy colors! I have three cards that I made especially for today. Let’s take a look at my first project: I used one of the icons from the Crafty Babe Die Bundle, also separately as Labels & Icons Etched Dies. I mounted it on a white rectangle to look like a Polaroid photo. I teamed it up with a journal card and stripe paper from the Simple Stories Crafty…
